Was just about to link you to this post!
In my post, I removed the link to the original thread after someone in this comment section forgot to attack the idea instead of the person. Tsk tsk, chilling effects when we do that!
RE: chilling: It's hard to find an idea expressed yet which is not shared by others. Attack the person, and the opinion stays, but in the future it may be hidden from view. And that's just not better for anyone.
Thanks for sparking a big discussion!
This comment would be more relevant a year down the line if perspectives shifted and users begged for sanitization, but:
Is it technically challenging or financially costly or otherwise problematic to mirror content to another subdomain, or domain mask or something? I thought of this after seeing oldsh.itjust.works:
try.itjust.works
leg.itjust.works
share.itjust.works
subm.itjust.works
(2 & 4 don’t work as well as the current split word)
No reply requested unless it seems like it would be fun/interesting to type one
The commenter themselves used big f potty word 😱

It’s stayed true!
Another “to be fair” - what do y’all reckon is the proportion of gamers who could define kernel? (not rhetorical)
Edit: maybe not as good as a question as how many have any opinion on kernel-level anticheat, since you don’t need to be able to define kernel to be against the anti-cheat if you’ve heard it slows down games

Tesla’s approach to automotive autonomy is a unique one: Rather than using pesky sensors, which cost money, the company has instead decided to rely only on the output from the car’s cameras. Its computers analyze every pixel, crunch through tons of data, and then apparently decide to just plow into deer and keep on trucking.
Shoutout to our hard-working maintainers, first of all.
Wanted to open a space for the community to discuss this aspect of marketing/identity.

Why can't I find the meme? I think it's woman yelling at cat that says something like, maybe we should raise taxes by 1% on people who make over $40,000,000 a year. And then the woman yelling is captioned, people who make 50k a year.
Dang it
Thank you

A user asks Bing/Copilot chat to summarize an invented article:
[User] summarize
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/29/us/dinosaurs-found-roaming-playground.html
Copilot
The article from The New York Times reports a surprising and amusing incident where life-sized dinosaur replicas were found roaming a playground in a small town. These realistic models, part of a local museum's exhibit, were accidentally released due to a security malfunction. The sight of dinosaurs in the playground caused quite a stir among the residents, especially the children, who were both thrilled and startled. The museum has since apologized and retrieved the dinosaurs, ensuring such an incident won't happen again. The event has sparked a lot of local interest and laughter, turning into a memorable story for the community[1].
Note this is problematic for a number of reasons including someone who wants to summarize a real article/thread won’t be informed an accurate summary may be impossible.

I’d like to try heavily theming my home screen, paradoxically while keeping icons quite recognizable.

“David Attenborough” (a soundalike voice) explains the Cybertruck's parasitic relationship with flatbed trailers; transcript:
>Here we see the Cybertruck has formed a peculiar symbiotic relationship with the larger flatbed trailer species. Evolutionarily disadvantaged, the Cybertruck has come up with a clever way to transport itself long distances.
>By attaching itself to the flatbed trailer, the Cybertruck can reliably move about without risking injury to its fragile exoskeleton or internal organs. What the flatbed trailer gets in return for this kindness, science has yet to discover.
Source
>I wondered who had made the video and found myself on Reddit, in r/CyberStuck, where the video was originally posted. The creator of the fake Attenborough video, who has since deleted the post, explains in the comments that they wrote the script and edited the video, and for source material, they used "a bunch of Cybertruck fanboys on YouTube, Whistlindiesel, and also the lovely people on this fair subreddit."

Horizontally stitched screenshots showing a Google Meet call on the iPhone where the microphone mute icon is highlighted in active mute status while the lock screen displays a mute icon which is not selected and inactive.
Always been this way for months. IIRC, the lock screen mute button is nonfunctional. Mute functionality detailed here.

A seating chart for an "8 HOUR FLIGHT" with the text "PICK YOUR SEAT" at the top. The chart is composed of 10 numbered seats, each occupied by a different famous Republican politician or public figure, or the devil. Each number represents a seat, and each seat is either adjacent to or between one or two different individuals.
